Subject: Tom Tyler Rides Again
This supposed to be a Reliable Picture, but even though it was written by Oliver Drake, who made a fortune writing, producing and even directing this sort of western, this little gem is just about as grade Z as it gets. B.B. Ray produced this picture anf it looks like it was shot in a day or two with a lot of footage of riding back and forth, mostly in long shots. A lot of cowboy actors are wasted in this mess and act as of they are just walking through their parts to get day money. Tom Tyler tries to breath a little life into his stalworth personna but he's just not up to it here.
I watched the cinepak version. Film not bad but sound as I watched it was badly out of sync. Don't avoid this at all costs, but just beware.
